DSL – Dino Structure Limiter
The fastest, most reliable way to enforce per-tribe dino and structure limits in ARK.Handles all cases — cryopods, uploads, tribe merges, range-based structures, and more — without a single database. Lightning precision, no wasted cycles.
Dino Limit System
- Set per-dino-type limits (with support for variants)
- Dino limits are per map, not global
- Neuters dinos automatically upon spawn (e.g., Ice Titan, Snow Owl, etc.)
- Supports grouped dinos under a shared limit
- Tracks tames, cryopods, and uploads in real time
- Integrates directly with Dino Storage V2
- Full support for:
- Tribe merges
- Downloads
- Podding/unpodding
- Smart handling: Excess tames stay behind in the old tribe after merge
🏗 Structure Limit System
- Set per-structure-type limits, including:
- Tek gates, triangle foundations, billboards, pillars, transmitters, and more
- Structures grouped under aliases (e.g., "Foundations")
- Range-based limit systemavailable:
- Optional ORP tie-in (MAGA plugin compatible)
- Automatically shows range when limit is reached
- Increase limits inside protected zones (configurable multiplier)
- Supports:
- Max total structures per tribe
- Max linked structures
- Blueprint ignore lists
- Precise messages on limit reach
- Tracks construction without scanning — true live accounting
